Take a Number

Take a Number

A Poem by Sad Penguin
"

Everyone is sad. Everyone wants to be loved. Take a number already!

"
Sadness
Pure unadulterated sadness
The desire to be loved
Ever so strong
Deep down
Tormented by that song
Visions past
Lucid and prevalent
Moving forward
Onto new horizons
Take a number
Wait your turn to die
No need to worry
We all must comply

Visions past

Moving forward
We all must comply
--
lines most striking for me, the high notes of a swan dive
